   Linked via "*trp* repressor"

   Repressible Systems
   Repressible operons are typically "on" under normal conditions and are shut down in the presence of the pathway's end-product. The trp operon, involved in tryptophan biosynthesis, exemplifies this. Tryptophan acts as a corepressor, binding to the trp repressor. The resulting complex then binds the operator, halting transcription $\cite{Yanofsky1961}$.
